What makes a 4-piston caliper better than a stock caliper?

A 4-piston caliper offers more clamping force than a typical 2-piston stock caliper. This increased force can lead to improved braking feel and more effective stopping power, especially when you need it most.

Does this caliper come with everything needed for installation?

This listing is for the Performance Machine rear brake caliper. It is designed as a bolt-on upgrade, but you will need to ensure you have the correct brake fluid and potentially new brake pads if yours are worn. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for a complete list of recommended items.

How do I maintain the polished finish on this caliper?

To maintain the polished finish, regularly clean the caliper with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or tools that could scratch the surface. A light polish can be used periodically to restore shine.

Product Details

If you're looking to improve the stopping power on your Harley-Davidson or other V-Twin motorcycle, this rear brake caliper from Performance Machine is a solid choice. This is a 4-piston caliper designed to work with stock-sized rotors, making it a straightforward bolt-on upgrade. Performance Machine has been a leader in CNC-machined brake components since 1980, and this caliper carries on that tradition of well-built parts.

Crafted from solid aluminum bar stock, this caliper is CNC-machined for precise fitment and consistent performance. The polished finish not only looks great but also helps protect the aluminum from the elements. The 4-piston design offers more clamping force than a typical stock caliper, which can lead to improved braking feel and more effective stopping, especially under load or during spirited riding. Installation is designed to be a direct bolt-on, meaning no welding or fabrication is required, simplifying the upgrade process.

This caliper is a great way to enhance the braking system on your V-Twin. Ensure you have the correct brake fluid and follow the manufacturer's instructions for bleeding the system to get the most out of your new Performance Machine caliper.
